8 Bold Souls is an American jazz ensemble, led by reedist Edward Wilkerson. The group was founded in 1985 by Wilkerson, also associated with the Association for the Advancement of Creative Musicians. They began at Chicago Filmmakers, a performance spot in Chicago, where they played on Thursdays. The performances were dubbed "New Music for 8 Bold Souls", and the group eventually adopted the shortened name for performances elsewhere. 8 Bold Souls were active intermittently through the 1990s, recording for Arabesque Records, and in 1999 released an album on Thrill Jockey, following it with performances at the Chicago Symphony Center and at festivals.

| - 8 Bold Souls ist ein US-amerikanisches Jazz-Oktett des Modern Creative bzw. Avantgarde Jazz. Das Oktett 8 Bold Souls wurde von dem Saxophonisten Edward Wilkerson, einem ehemaligen Mitglied des Ethnic Heritage Ensembles, in den 1980er Jahren mit anderen Musikern der Association for the Advancement of Creative Musicians (AACM) gegründet. In den Arrangements der gespielten Kompositionen werden vor allem die tiefen Lagen des Bläsersatzes bevorzugt; Hauptsolist ist der Tubist Aaron Dodd bzw. seit 1997 Gerald Powell. Im Spiel des Oktetts wechseln stark orchestrierte und strukturierte Partien mit sehr frei improvisierten Passagen ab. Der Stil von 8 Bold Souls erinnert stark an die Bands von Henry Threadgill. Die Cellistin Naomi Millender starb im Oktober 2018. (de)
